The Round Stack
There are a variety of styles of wood stoves available on the market today.

When you are the preparation of firewood for burning in a wood stove, proper stacking is essential to ensure that the firewood remain dry and ready to be burned when needed. Leaving space between the logs and separating their ends even facilitates airflow, which is essential to ensure that your wood dries effectively. The logs can be dried and stored by placing them in tarps or other structures.
Round stacking is a popular way to stack firewood. It is simple to use and looks great. Start by creating a base of three to four rows of treated 2x4s or pallets. On the top of this base, create a stack using end pillars by placing 3-4 pieces of wood side-by-side and then another on opposite sides. Continue to build the pillars until the stack is 12 rows high, making sure that there is plenty of space between each one to ensure that air flows easily across the entire pile.
Then use a center stake to hold the stack upright and begin adding perpendicular pieces on the outside of the stack. Tie them together in the middle using string. Repeat this process until the height you desire for your wall. You can then complete the interior with odd-looking pieces, and those that are too big for the outer rows. Indoor stacking requires an area with good airflow and plenty of sunlight. Overcrowding can lead to damp and spongy wood. The best place to stack indoors is typically a garage or basement.
